    摘要: A system for controlling access to a secured area for the delivery of parcel shipments comprises an access device, a central server unit that is connected to the access device, and at least one database, which is linked with the central server unit. The access device further comprises a reading unit for recognizing a shipment number of a parcel shipment that is to be submitted and a transmitting unit for transmitting to the central server unit the recognized shipment number together with an identification number that identifies the access device. The central server unit is configured to check the shipment number and the identification number against the at least one database in order to retrieve registration information and shipment status. The central server unit is configured to transmit a release signal to the access device and the access device is configured to receive the release signal activate door opener.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a quantum computing unit comprising a superconducting substrate or other superconducting component, at least three outer Majorana modes, and at least one inner Majorana mode, wherein the at least three outer Majorana modes are located along an outer perimeter, and wherein the at least one inner Majorana mode is located within the outer perimeter. This spatial configuration of the four participating Majorana modes allows to control the time-dependent coupling between the respective Majorana modes. The related quantum gates can be performed perfectly in a finite time, preferably with a frequency of up to several GHz. These include the braiding gate, the π/8 magic phase gate, the π/12 phase gate, and, for multi-qubit systems, the CNOT gate. The robustness of the mechanism guarantees that for special times the quantum gate is conducted the quantum gate is perfectly realized. This property is independent of material specific parameters. Hence, the behavior can be expected in all systems where Majorana zero modes appear in the center of Abrikosov vortices, in particular, not only in FeTeSe, which we consider as an example.
